  1. Option to save GenAI expanded files in different locations.

    I like to save all associated files with individual jobs. It keeps thing together as the company uses a job number system for each Job (like a lot of Design companies in UK).

    At the moment, InDesign saves everything in Documents > InDesign GenAI Assets Folder including all alternative AI options. The option to choose where to save the AI files would be great.

    Also... 300dpi images would be amazing!

  2. It is recommended that “GREP”, “Shortcuts”, “PDF preset templates” in the directory can be quoted in the directory shortcuts.

    Just as I can copy the shortcut to my script directory (D:\myscript) to the InDesign script directory (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign 2024\Scripts\Scripts Panel\Samples), I can use my existing scripts without having to copy them to this location. I can use the existing scripts without copying them to this location.
    Just copy “myscipt.lnk” to Samples.

    For example, these locations, of course it would be nice to add these to the preferences to be able to import and export, that would be more convenient.
    The benefit of course, is that you don't have to worry about losing these files, because it's just shortcuts…

  3. Multi-Lingual data handling

    This is a suggestion for a new feature for people using InDesign for multilingual purposes.

    In India, we may need to use 3 languages ​​at the same time, for example, in addition to English, we may need to use the national language Hindi and the regional language Malayalam, Tamil or some other language. In other countries, sometimes even more.

    When we try to make changes to a paragraph or chapter using different fonts in different languages, we often have to select and change even one letter to change the font in each language. This greatly reduces the joy of using…

  5. Please stop ID files flying back open from the dock (Mac)

    When I've minimised an ID file in the dock (on the Mac), work on something else and then close it, the minimised file flies back open. Or minimising a file, then opening something else, the minimised doc opens up again and comes to the front. Please make any minimised doc stay there, until I call it back. I know it's there, I put it there for a reason.

  7. Check GenAI Images in Preflight

    Add GenAI images to Preflight profiles. This is especially important since GenAI images default to saving to the user's computer, which is not ideal in a collaborative environment where other users will see broken links.

  10. New utility feature called: "Move Link(s) To...".

    It would be great to have another utilities feature called: Move Link(s) To...

    Ideally it would function the same as Copy Link(s) To... but instead of copying it would just move the files.

    This would allow for a cleaner file setup where you can move all your files from a document into one location without packaging and having the files as duplicates on your computer.

  12. Side by Side Page View

    When using Adobe InDesign, it would be helpful for certain documents to be able to see two pages side by side. As of now, a simple two-page document has page two appearing below page one.

  14. Big bug that's been bugging me for too long: the extracted directory has a lot of duplicate entries.

    I've been researching this for a while and I've kind of found the reason.
    It's when you set “Skip header rows on first page” for some tables that are actually only one page long, that's when the problem occurs.

    But I hope adobe will improve it, because you don't know which tables don't end up spanning the page.
    You forget about it, and when the client finds out, you get yelled at, or even become an accident.

    The current solution can only save as IDML, but you can't save as IDML very often.

    The sample file is here. Please download the…

  15. Ability to set a layer to high res preview permanently

    It would be great to be able to set a layer to high res preview permanently. So that everytime you opened a document it remembered that Layer 2 for example needs to be high res preview.

    Reason for this: I work with a lot of dies in packaging, and when I link to them they always lose the high res view, but I need the high res view for the die so I can precisely design.

    Yes, I'm aware I can copy and paste the die from illustrator into InDesign, but when you are working with numerous files, it's best…

  16. Make Edit Original available with Adobe Experience Manager

    Hello, we recently implemented Adobe Experience Manager as our DAM and since then we lost the EDIT ORIGINAL option for our links in InDesign which is a heavily used feature for us given that some of our designers are spending a lot more time having to open different tools to edit each link. Anyway we can get that back?

  18. Performance on Apple Silicon

    I’m writing to report ongoing performance issues in Adobe InDesign that the latest update unfortunately hasn’t resolved.

    On my Apple Silicon Mac Studio (M2 chip, 64 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD) running macOS Sonoma 15.1.1 (24B91), even simple tasks like switching between a text box (T) and an object (V) have a noticeable delay of about half a second. This was never an issue on my older Intel-based MacBook Pro with Adobe CS, and it’s making normal daily work in InDesign frustratingly slow.

    For comparison, Illustrator performs flawlessly, with instant responses as expected, making the difference between the two apps…

  19. Request for Text Alignment Option for Interactive Forms Directly in InDesign

    Dear Adobe InDesign Team,

    I would like to request the addition of a feature that allows text alignment for interactive forms to be managed directly within InDesign, rather than having to perform this task in Adobe Acrobat.

    Currently, our workflow involves creating datasheets with centered ordering codes, which are frequently updated. Each update requires redoing the text alignment in Acrobat, adding unnecessary steps to our process. This is both time-consuming and frustrating, especially for what should be a simple text alignment adjustment.

    Having this feature integrated into InDesign would greatly improve efficiency and streamline the creation of interactive forms, saving…

  20. Support for "TDM", "PDF/UA" and "PLUS License Data Format" in XMP-Metadata

    Missing support for "TDM", "PDF/UA" and "PLUS License Data Format" in XMP-Metadata in all Adobe apps.
    There are not data fields for "TDM" (text-and-data-mining), PDF/UA (accessibility) and "PLUS License Data Format" in the UI of all Adobe apps.
    This information can currently only be added manually by import of an XML-Snippet-File in the tab "raw-data".
    Or with InDesign scripting and the library "lib:AdobeXMPScript".
